This bonus episode happens between the first aria of the Queen of the Night (already aired) and the second spectacular aria (will be published in the coming month).

So in January we managed to get together and prepare a small concert for you all, we celebrated the 2 years of our podcast.

A song that we could not really nail back then is the song Volvere from Mexican composer María Grever. This extraordinary piece of music deserves some time to try to redo what we couldn't handle back then.

Just read or listen to the news or check "X" (formerly Twitter) to find the many of these "world leaders" looking for reasons to send their people to die for a war. Luciano Pavarotti in collaboration with other artists gave visibility to the horrible situation happening in Bosnia in the 90s of the past century. More than 30 years later, this song and the voice of Pavarotti can witness that nothing has changed except for names and places.
